10th Madurai Film Festival 2008 - Retrospective Section

We are happy to announce that 10th Madurai International Documentary and Short Film Festival 2008 will screen documentaries of veteran filmmakers ANAND PATWARDHAN and DEEPA DHANRAJ under the retrospective section.

Both
Anand Patwardhan and Deepa Dhanraj do not need introduction to documentary filmmakers and fans as they have been consistently making political documentaries for more than four decades. Apart from winning several national and international awards their films have been used by human rights groups, women's groups, educational and media institutions and of course film societies. Thier films have been instrumental in raising debates and discussions apart from being campaign materials in the various social and political movements for change.

We are very proud to screen their films under the retrospective section of 10th Madurai International Documentary and Short Film Festival 2008.
